You should think about using containers for this.. much better. It's what apps crave. Their own world of deps specific to the app and nothing else..

Sometimes they even give you a container, or a build script for one. Makes life much easier and safer. You don't want those deps on your main machine running wild anyway..

Docker would crush my ancient machine.

I would try to recommend systemd-nspawn, the lightest of containers. But it's only docs are the man pages and I'm too lazy to write tutorials about it yet.. 😎📡🐛

there is only one programming environment and language that respects everyone

i'm not even gonna bother to repeat it, so tired of trying to explain this to people
